On phrases that might have lost their meaning

Recommended Posts

When someone says  "I love you" to me, I'm just blank.

I don't even know what that is supposed to mean.

Like how do you even interprete what you feel? How am I sure we are thinking the same thing?

I'd prefer specifics to follow. They show that one actually understands the message they are trying to convey.

"I feel safe with you"

"I care about you"

"I never want to hurt you"

"We can count on each other"

"I am happy when I'm with you"

"I trust you"

Now these specifics, I can relate with.

For Me to confess my love for you it means that I  have a sense of vulnerability to you, it means  am save, comfortable, Happy, fulfilled, satisfied, and safe with you. 

it means I trust you, count on you and see you as an extension of me. It means I'll never hurt you or let things I can defend you from happen to you. 

When am in love with someone it feels like am in an inexplicable realm with you and that you're the most important person in the world to me besides my family. 

I don't get to say that word easily to just anyone and I don't ever say it to impress anyone same way I don't go about calling people sweet names for the fun it. 

So any girl to whom I've ever said that word "LOVE YOU" to it means I've chosen you above anything else in the world

How are you.

Lol. I have used a fullstop deliberately because most times, it isn't said with an intention to really know the details of how the other really is.

Hahahahaha! 

Even this could pass as a phrase that has lost meaning because 80% of the time we type it in a chat, we aren't actually laughing 😋

Now these are the additional specifics I was talking about 😄
